Brian Petoletti
HEAD GOLF PROFESSIONAL, PGA ASSOCIATE
The best part of my job is being able to help those who share the same passion for the game of golf! Whether your passion for golf is just emerging or it’s been a part of your life for a while, I welcome the opportunity to help you improve your playing and enjoyment of the game. Instruction can be a bit overwhelming at first; there is a lot of communication and sharing of key fundamentals to help each student build a simple and consistent swing. To help with that, I have found sending follow-up emails after every session is invaluable. Lesson follow-up emails include a summary of “Key Points” taught during that lesson, video swing analysis (if taken), and drills to help you reinforce “new” learnings.
Each of us has our own swing; what I have found to be most important is:
- Is the clubface angle square at impact?
- Is the club’s path coming into the ball down the line when striking the ball?
- Is your swing simple and repeatable?
Shane Harvey
ASSISTANT GOLF PROFESSIONAL
Shane was born in Southern California but has spent the majority of his life in the Puget Sound. After learning to golf as a teenager, he was quickly hooked on the beautiful yet difficult game. Shane was looking to be around the game more and got a job at the Golf Club at Hawks Prairie. He has learned to play the game with passion while never forgetting that it is first and foremost a game! Shane teaches golf fundamentals with plenty of emphasis on fun, and his enthusiasm for the game shines with both Junior Golfers and those who have been playing their whole lives. Sharing his birthday with the day Indian Summer was opened, it was only a matter of time before he joined the staff at the club.
